Some of those passes in that link were just filthy. Does he do that often? That skip pass when the big sealed, the behind the back pass
He usually throws simpler passes. But I've seen the behind the back to the baseline guy I've seen a couple of times, and the hook passes around both defenders on the PnR:
I don't see why this guy is worth 9 pages of talk, Lakers ain't getting him...
Either the Celtics pick him (they REALLY need another ball-hog next to Thomas) OR they trade the pick to someone else who picks him...
Or Danny Ainge somehow sees the game the same way as you and he picks Ball.
Should I be offended by you saying I think like Ainge? (LOL - its cool...) _________________ “Always remember... Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.”
Only Lakers fans could somehow get depressed about not getting Fultz despite the fact they're getting Ball. That's NOT just a consolation prize. _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

A few years ago, there was a young team gathered 3 MVP level young talents but they went to finals one time, only
Another team, built with 2 7th pick, 1 11th pick and 1 35th pick, has gone to the finals 3 consecutive year.
How can a championship team built?
It seems more than just gather talents. 3 MVP level young players do not mean even 1 ring.
We may have already had enough talents. We have to give them time and room to develop. We have to play their strength and focus on developing chemistry

Considering Fultz is on another tier as a prospect, that technically IS a consolation prize.
Another tier should have an impact on leading his team to wins or at least a respectable record especially on college level . That's what great players did in college. There's no precedent of great player that came from an awful college team.
Fultz doesn't elevate a team like Ball but I question more why he even went to Washington in the first place. Romar always seems to recruit top-level players but one of the worst coaches I've seen. Same held true for Simmons.

If they kept Harden, I'm pretty sure they would have gotten one.

And hence why Fultz will probably be the top pick... _________________ Lakers need to build a freaking team !

You have to watch him playing FIBA tournament. You put good teammates around him and the kid will deliver.

He though he was going to be playing with Murray and Chriss at the time that he committed (before the college season started). Both guys, while talented, weren't that highly ranked coming into their college careers and we not expected to be one and dones.
The three guys, including the graduating senior, that left UW accounted for over 60% of the entire team's scoring.

And yet he's far and away the consensus number one prospect over Ball.
